Dark Wizard (SM) build for PvM and PvP in MU Online
The highest area-damage mage in MU. See the stat distribution, skills and sets to dominate PvM and surprise in PvP.
The Dark Wizard (evolving into Soul Master and Grand Master) is the king of area damage. Fragile but devastating — when played well, it clears whole screens of monsters.
Stats
| Stat | What it does |
|---|---|
| Energy (ENE) | Increases magic damage — the priority |
| Vitality (VIT) | HP, crucial due to the class's fragility |
| Agility (AGI) | Defense and cast speed |
| Strength (STR) | Only enough to equip gear |
PvM build
Max Energy for damage, with enough Vitality to survive the spots. Area spells like Meteorite and Nova make the DW the best farmer in the game.
PvP build
Here Vitality matters more: you must survive to cast. A well-geared DW drops enemies before they get close, but dies fast if caught.
Key skills
- Energy Ball / Power Wave: reliable early damage;
- Meteorite / Nova: massive area damage at end game;
- Status spells: useful in PvP.
Recommended sets
Look for sets that boost mana, magic damage and defense. Excellent items with damage per mana and recovery are ideal. At end game, Ancient mage sets give the final jump.
